Installation Instructions

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Installing, starting up, and servicing air-conditioning equip-

ment can be hazardous due to system pressures, electrical com-

ponents and equipment location.

Only trained, qualified installers and service technicians

should install, start up, and service this equipment.

When working on air-conditioning equipment, observe

precautions in the literature, on tags, stickers, and labels

attached to the equipment.

Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work

gloves. Use care in handling equipment.

GENERAL

This control accessory reduces 30RB chiller capacities be-

low the standard lowest capacity step. This capacity reduction

provides more precise control of leaving fluid temperature

during light load conditions.

The solenoid valve limits the amount of gas that can be

bypassed from the condenser without impacting oil return.

One accessory package is required for 30RB060-190 units

and for each module of duplex units 30RB315-390. Two

accessory packages are required for 30RB210-300 units to

accommodate connections for all three refrigerant circuits. See

Table 1 for modular unit combinations.

Table 1 — Modular Unit Combinations

NOTE: An “A” in the model number indicates the design series.

INSTALLATION

Examine the package contents for correct part numbers. If

any of the components are damaged, file a claim with the

shipping company and notify a Carrier representative.

See Table 2 for package contents. See Fig. 1 for dimensional

drawings of tubes included in the kit.

The following material is field supplied:

1

/

2

in. OD copper tubing

• standard

1

/

2

in. copper tube elbows and couplings as required

Install the Solenoid Valve

1. Shut off power to the unit.
2. Remove refrigerant charge from the unit.
3. Locate the factory-supplied stub on the discharge line for

each circuit. Locate the

1

/

2

in. NPT pipe plugs at the

blank end of the cooler for 30RB110 circuit B and

for both circuits A and B on 30RB060-300 units. See

Fig. 2.

4. Remove the

1

/

2

in. NPT pipe plugs from the blank end

of the cooler. Use an appropriate thread sealing

compound and install one 1 in. — 14 O-ring seal

adapter for each circuit. Lightly lubricate each O-ring

and attach a

5

/

8

in. O-ring seal tube assembly to each

adapter. This nut should be torqued to 30 ft-lb (40 N-

m). For 30RB110 circuit A size only, use a tubing cut-

ter to cut off the end of the stub tube. See Fig. 3.

5. Assemble the hot gas bypass line in the following order:

a. Remove the discharge stub tube and braze the cor-

rect beaded tube in place.

b. Braze the ball valve to the beaded tube.
c. Braze the solenoid valve into the line.
d. Using field-supplied tubing, connect the solenoid

valve to the low side connection, either the cooler

or the liquid line.

e. Clamp the

5

/

8

-in. tube to the rail. See Fig. 4 and 5.

Use field-supplied

1

/

2

in. OD copper tubing and fit-

tings (as required) to plumb from the solenoid valve

outlet to either the adapter tube in the cooler or stub

tube in the liquid line depending on unit size. Tube

support brackets and

1

/

2

in. tubing clamps are provided

with the kit. Install brackets to the bottom of the coil

bases to support tubing.

WARNING

Electrical shock can cause personal injury and death. Shut

off all power to this equipment during installation. There

may be more than one disconnect switch. Tag all discon-

nect locations to alert others not to restore power until work

is completed.

IMPORTANT: This accessory can only be used on units

configured for Cooler Fluid Type (Configuration

SERV

FLUD = 1 [Water]). The minimum load control

accessory (HGBP) is not allowed on units configured for

Cooler Fluid Type (Configuration

SERV

FLUD = 2

[Brine]).

disconnects. Remove refrigerant charge from the circuits

using an approved refrigerant recovery device before

proceeding with this installation. Follow good piping

practices. Severe personal injury could result.
